To say Floyd was never a big puncher shows that you didn't follow his entire career. Most people are only familiar with "Money" Mayweather, who was the master defensive counter puncher; but "Pretty boy" Floyd at 130 ibs was a knock out artist.
Justin Ponce he wont knock out conor thats for sure, but if conor connects he can for sure knock out floyd. most likely it turns in to a decision win for floyd if he doesnt get KOd
This is the equivalent of an American football kicker trying to play for a football(soccer) team just because he is good at kicking. I love Mcgregor but I think he will be schooled. Saying that $100m later and I doubt he'll care what it does to his reputation.
JOE ROGAN its called incentive. This is the way the entire world works. YOu think fighters will fight the same for guaranteed money? . YOu dont know human nature very well do you ? You could not be more wrong.
If I was Conor I would just jab and keep outside and lose the fight to a 12 round decision. Let's be honest, if Mcgregor played chicken would Mayweather ever chase and go for a knockout? Fuck no. Make 100 mil to just pretty much spar for a night and go home unscathed? Fuck the fans that's 100% what I would do, and then I'd retire.
conor never fought a pro boxing match. hes stepping in to a different sport to face the best of all time, and were all waiting on floyd to sign the contract. what the fuck is up with that. youd think floyd would be jumpin at the chance to fight him. #heisapussy
I think conor will find the holes. it's not really about what combat sport you do, fighter intelligence will be key. Mayweather has nothing to study. Conor has a thousand hours to study. I believe that whatever that cocky Irishman puts his mind to he will get!! this is no walkover and all ya gotta do is think about all the logic you produced when you last doubted him. you all did it at least once and you were wrong!! I'm taking all experts with a pinch of salt from here on in! please don't forget that Mayweather might be passed it or at least worried that he might be!
Was... boxers wake up one day and the magic is simply gone! It's not a slow deterioration..it's a wake up and it's gone! If Mayweather has reached that point his groupies ain't gonna tell him because their livelihoods depend on him being great. Time is his enemy now and Conor's got oodles of it! BTW conor beat all his opponents bar Nate before he got to the ring. Conor will use as much dirt as he can dig up. He won't show the respect Mayweather's opponents had to show. Have a think about that pile of dirt that nobody had the balls to mention till now. Press conference here I come!!!
UFC fighter pay model shouldn't change. What's the biggest motivator in the world? Money. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they should fight each other for scraps at all. If everyone got paid around the same win or lose then fighter's are less likely to perform as well or as motivated as they do now. Besides, It's not like they're starving. Lowest contract pay is a 10k/10k(USD) show/win contract by the ufc that's usually a 4 fight contract and also the 2,500 from reebok for each fight(4). So lowest they will make is 50k if they lose 3 times and 90k if they win all their fights and this is THE LOWEST UFC will pay fighters, and that's not including the 50k bonuses. Most fighters will get more on their contract if they know how to haggle. New UFC fighters make really good money. Don't be fooled. Oh yeah, they also get full medical coverage.
yes he was a knock out artist when he was younger. look at all his early fights. He's not a knock out artist now.

Floyd still has over 50% ko rating. Early in his career as pretty boy was a monster
Justin Ponce he wont knock out conor thats for sure, but if conor connects he can for sure knock out floyd. most likely it turns in to a decision win for floyd if he doesnt get KOd
Justin Ponce He definitely can knock out Conor. Conor is not a pro boxer and tires very quickly. I can definitely see a tko
Shamyrl Conor has a very strong chin, never been tko'd. Floyd has no punching power anymore
Floyd will KO or TKO him for sure, 7 rounds tops.
Justin Ponce Yea, before all the hand issues
Barely even spoke about DC-Jones
The fight is on!
Of him like running backwards
rogan thirsty he wants to do commentary.
The victor goes the spoil

everyone thinks conor will box mayweather. conor is going to FIGHT floyd

Conor's good. But he's not Mayweather good.
But is Mayweather Mayweather good?
Oisin Lally Floyd is a ghost, you can't punch a ghost.

They only make about 2/3s considering taxes, and training camps at this level cost thousands, sometimes tens of thousands of dollars.
The reebok deal is bullshit though. They could make way more money from their own sponsors
Ullmans9 Ye but to be honest I like how the reebok gear looks but Ye it's shit for the fighters
